A Magazine Writer Tells How President
 Cleveland Lives.
 President Cleveland rises at half-past seven o'clock, dresses and slaves him self, and is ready for breakfast at eight He breakfasts en famille, and finishes his morning repast in less than thirty min utes. His breakfast usually consists of oatmeal, beefsteak, coffee, hot cakes and eggs. He is very fond of fruit, and eats freely of it. He leaves the breakfast ta- ble and goes directly to his office and be- gins work without any exercise what ever, writing letters and looking over papers until ten o'clock, when the callers begin to arrive. He then has a siege of a couple of hours with the states men and office-seekers, which lasts until 1:30 o'clock, when he is ready for his luncheon. He eats this in less than fifteen minutes, and, like his every day breakfasts and dinners, it is eaten in the private dining-room, and the whole family sit down together. President Cleveland's s lunch consists of bread and butter, cold meats, little fruit and a cup of tea.
 After he has eaten it he goes directly back to his office and works steadily until four At this time he goes out to drive in company with his private secre- tary, Colonel Lamont. He returns in time for dinner, which is ready at seven o'clock He does not dress for dinner in the conventional style. except when he has guests, who will appear in evening dress. His private dinners are plain Wine is served only when there are guests present who are accustomed to drinking wine with their meats. He is not so fond of beer as has been report ed by the newspapers, the total White House consumption of this article dur ing the past year being not more than two dozen bottles. The Presidents daily dinner consists of five or six courses. First there is soup, then fish, then a roast, followed by game, dessert, fruit, and, after dinner, coffee. He does not sit long at table and immedi- ately on leaving it he goes up into the corridor of the second story of the White House and smokes a cigar, after which he goes back to his work. President Cleveland never smokes in his office, and the only smoking he does is this solitary post-prandial cigar. He goes to bed about midnight, and falls asleep as soon as his head touches the pillow. His system is such that six or seven hours sleep is sufficient for him.-Lip- pincott'S Magaztne.

STORY OF A UNIFORM.
How MT. Ward Deceived the PigtaiIed Of-
 ficials of China.

How MT. Ward Deceived the PigtaiIed Of
 ficiaIs of China.
 The conversation here drifted to dip lomatic etiquette, and I asked MT. Ward how he got over the dress-coat question when he was our Minister to China. He replied: At the time I was in China the ordinary dress of the American cit izen would hardly have been fit one in which to have appeared on State occasion. The Chinese knew little about the Americans at that time, and it was perhaps more necessary to create good impression there than at other places where our diplomatic relations had iong been established. For several decades I have been the Captain of the Chatham Artillery, little company in a New Jersey village. was Captain of it at this time, and I had Captains s uniform, part of which was dress coat with military lace on the sleeves, and with brass buttons upon which were the letters c. A, meaning the Chatham Artillery. On my way to China Istopped at Paris, and had the military lace taken off and diplomatic lace put on. This coat was buttoned up close at the throat, and on the whole was not bad looking uniform. In China I wore it upon all State occasions, and it was generally admired. The Chinese often asked me what the letters C. A, stood for. l replied that the suit was meant as an honor to China, and that these letters stood for China and America, and in order to show how much our country thought of China we had hon. ored her by putting the c. before the A. This explanation was taken in good faith, and the uniform was a success. Cor. CIeUeIdnd Leader.

four to one, three-quarters of the local magistrates appointed are Frotestants. The Lord-Lieutenant selects the poor law guardians, and the sherifs of the counties; and the sheriffs, in their turn, appoint the grand juries, which, in Ire land, possess large powers of local con- trol
 The ''stipendiary" magistrates, who are paid for their services, and who hold higher courts, are also selected by the central power at Dublin Castle. The po- lice, who have in charge the maintenance of public order in Ireland, are under the command of an Inspector-General at Dublin, who is the appointee of the Lord-Lieutenant; and the police, also, are really under his control. The Irish police are military force, armed with rifles and swords, and drilled in military fashion.
 Thus it is seen that the local affairs, the administration of justice, and the preservation of order in Ireland, are virtually in the hands of the Lord-Lieu- tenant, who is not in the least responsi- ble to the country wherein he exercises his great powers, but only to the British Government.
 MT. Chamberlain, the English states man, who has recently opposed MT. Gladstone's scheme of home rule, yet declared, on one occasion, that the sys- tenn of British rule in Ireland ''is as completely centralized as that with which Russia governs Poland. An Irish man at this moment," he added, ''can not move a step, he can not lift a finger in any parish, municipal or educational work, without being confronted by, in- terfered with, controlled by an English official, appointed by a foreign govern ment. and without a shadow of repre- sentative authority.

For Weak Women.

Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. :: "About the first of September, 1881, my wife was taken with uterine hemorrhage. The best styptics the physician could pre- scribe did not check it and she got more and more enfeebled. She was troubled with Prolapsus Cteri, Leucorrhoea, numbness of the limbs, sickness of the stomach and loss of appetite. I purchased trial bottle of your Vegetable Compound. She said she could discover Salutdry eject from the first dose. Now she is comparatively free from the Prolapsus, Stomach's sickness, &c. The hemorrhage is very much better and is less at the regular periods. Her appetite is restored, and her general health and strength are much improved. We feel that we have been sOoHderJitHy 6snetfted and our hearts are drawn out in gratitude for the same and in sympathy for other sufferers, for whose sakes we allow our names to be used" c. W.

 One must be careful how he jokes when in Germany. An innkeeper near Berlin, named Adam, adopted the sug- gestion of newspaper man and called his place Paradise. The journalist, who is an excellent imitator of the style of the old minnesingers, wrote for the tavern sign short poem, in which Adam is made to say that the Lord turned former Adam out of Paradise, but as the election had brought misery upon the human race, the Lord had been pleased to provide another garden and another Adam to take care of it. The poem had no sooner been displayed than the police ordered it removed as blasphemy.

After Diphtheria

The patient recovers strength slowly, the system is weak and facilitated, and the blood poisoned by the ravages of the disease. What Is needed is good reliable tonic and blood purifier like Hoods Sarsaparla which has just the elements of strength for the body and vitality and richness for the blood which soon bring back robust health After scarlet fever or pneumonia it is also of great benefit.
 After recovering from prolonged sickness with diphtheria, and needing something to build me up, I took two bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla- 1 felt good results from the first dose. It seemed to go from the top of my head to the ends of my toes. I know Hoods sarsaparilai is good thing" G. H. STRATToN, Druggist, Westfeld Mass.
 Upon our little girl, who had been sick with scarlet fever, the use of Hoods Sarsaparilla was most marvellous, entirely removing the poison from her blood and restoring her to good health. Hoods sarsaparilla deserves our highest praise." E. G. STRATroS, Swampscott, Mass.

Mr.. Gladstone on America.

OF course many of the English liberals do
not share the irritation against this
country to which we have recently alluded.
Mr.. Gladstone evidently does not. At the
opening of Buffalo Bill's Wild West show
in London the other day no less person
age than Mr.. Gladstone was present and
made speech. He said, as reported by
cable:
There was nothing more desirable on
this side of the water than true and &C
curate representation of the American
world. About sixty years ago there eX-
listed, as he believed, much prejudice
against England in America, and an equal
amount of prejudice in England against
America He believed that those preju-
dices had disappeared. He believed that
exhibition grounds rejoiced in being en-
ployed in Il task, the execution of which
would bring England and America more
closely together. God Almighty had
made Englishmen and Americans kins-
men, and they ought to have affections
for one another. If they had not humanity
wonld cry shame upon. them. He re,
joiced that the clouds which had
parted them had almost disappear
ed from the political sky, and that
the future was as bright and as promising
as the warmest hearted among them could
wish 1t to be. Half century ago some
admirable works on America had been
published by, he regretted to say, not an
English but French writer. Since then
people in England had learned but little of
America, which had during that time de-
veloped to an extent almost incredible.
America of to-day was as different from the
America of sixty years ago, as the America
of that period was from prairie life.
America has not been idle since that time.
She had gone through one of the greatest
struggles known in the history of man,
and he believed that the result of that
struggle was what the mass of the people
of England wished it to be. He believed
that If they had to go through another
similar trial, though that was scarcely
possible, the result of the issue would be
the same in conclusion.
This is all very well. But Mr. Glad
stones expressions of good will, will un-
fortunately, have little weight with the

are charging him nowadays with abetting

ing those three terrible days of July in
1868. In the prosecution Of this work
eight miles of avenues, enclosed with wire
fences, have been constructed and nearly
100 monuments, costing from $500 to S400
apiece, have been erected. The Battlefield
Memorial association is purchasing wide
strips of land extending wherever the bat
tie was fought on about twenty hve square
miles of territory. 1t provides for the
avenues and locates the sites for the
monuments. The most imposing memoir
ials are paid for by appropriations voted
by the legislatures of the various States
represented. Among the States which have
thus far appropriated most literally and
promptly for this purpose are Vermont,
Ohio, Maine and New York. Ohio APP
propriated the magnificent sum of $50, 900.
The work of laying out this memorable
field and erecting the various monuments
concentrating the valor of those who
fought there, is rapidly going on, and

tolerably familiar with the account of the
battle can 90 over the field and picture to
himself the exact position of every regl-
ment and battery.

Woman Suffrage in Kansas.

The Chicago Inter ocean says of it
"There is very little doubt but both those
who favored and those who opposed
woman suffrage have been disappointed
IN the result. The opponents have found
that, notwithstanding their prophesies to
the contrary, women will vote, and even
manifest an eagerness to go to the polls.
On the other hand, the champions of the
cause" have learned that though the
women vote they do not all vote on the
same side nor as the champions" want
and expect them to. This disposition of
the ladies to divide on party issue and
to become partisans doubtless caused
some heartburning and bitterness, but
nothing else should have been expected
in free America. The country, howeve
is none the worse for the Kansas expert
ment, and Kansas, beside being very
largely advertised, appears to be assured
OF better municipal government than ever
before"
The New Orleans Ptcdy,inc notes the
following points 1.-THE disinclinatiou of
goods citizens to vote extends to their
wives second the women followed GER
tain self-appointed leaders just as men
do; third, the women divided on the tenn
perance question, but the majority are
usually in its favor; fourth, women are
not afraid to go to the polls alone; fifth,
women would talk scandal about one
another; sixth, in some places the ladies
canvassed the town in buggies; seventh,
women are not governed by mere party
names"
The PicdyunG adds 1.-THE Kansas eX-
pertinent is quite curiosity, and there
will be considerable interest in the effect
of it on the Legislature. If the women
press for a further extension of the suf-
frage, they are pretty sure to get it,"
The Topeka Capital says " The truth
is, that women acted, in this matter of
voting, just as they do in all other mat.
tiers. They were perfectly natural about
it unless their every day conduct is I'M
natural. They acted precisely as they do
about home affairs they have opinions
about how city affairs ought to be con
Quoted and they voted their convictions in
that line. Hard working women, wives

piece or day, took the laborers' view of

uated and taking more interest in the
moral and intellectual progress of the city,
voted on the line of temperance, schools,
public improvements, etc. In short the
women behaved just like women-in an
easy, graceful, womanly body. When
there was cause for a display of energy,
there was no delay. Women are always
quick to see and as prompt in action. 1t
